NFL Playoffs

The NFL Playoffs are set and in the AFC, the New England Patriots and Baltimore Ravens will get byes into the next round of the playoffs.  The other four teams will be playing on Wild Card Weekend.  The Cincinnati Bengals who have been playing well behind rookie quarterback Andy Dalton, the Bengals time will come but I think its in a a year or two.  The Houston Texans will be playing the Bengals, Houston is on something like their fourth quarterback, I don't expect the Texans to be around for long.  Is their any Tim Tebow magic left, they'll have to rely on it, even though their defense isn't bad.  The Pittsburgh Steelers and quarterback Ben Roethlisberger know how to win come playoff time.  Baltimore has a good defense and a decent offense.  The Patriots have a great offense, but that defense scares me.  In what is a wide open AFC, which I can see any of these teams win.  I'll go with a New England, Baltimore Conference Championship, with Baltimore coming out on top.  In the NFC Green Bay, who has looked beatable at times although quarterback Aaron Rodgers does a great job distributing the ball, will get a bye along with San Francisco who coach Jim Harbaugh has turned around in only a few months.  The Atlanta Falcons are a different team on the road, may be in for a short stay play the NY Giants who after beating Dallas to win the division has the pass rush (Jason Pierre-paul, Tuck, and Kinwinaka) and the quarterback receiver duo (manning to Cruz) to make some noise.  Detroit has to stop taking stupid penalties and play some football or they'll be eaten up by Drew Brees and the Saints.  I believe the teams in the NFC are the Green Bay Packers, New Orleans Saints, and New York Giants.  I believe the last two teams standing in the Conference will be the Packer and Saints with the Saints coming out on top.
